Sure, they are expensive, I'm simply pointing out that it is a genuinely good architecture. And you really can't get the same performance with CISC. I'm personally hoping we'll start seeing RISCV based machines that are built in a similar way.

    I got one from a startup I worked at a couple of years ago, and then when the whole Silicon Valley bank crash happened they laid me off, but let me keep it. And yeah Asashi is still pretty barebones mainly cause you can basically just use open source apps on it that can be compiled against it. I'm really hoping to see something like M series from China but using RISCV and with Linux.
